What "policy" has failed?
Keeping bin Laden in the box he has been in for four years and marginalizing his influence by keeping him out of communication with his followers seems to be a better policy than making him a martyr. The DBM helps him get his message out and makes him a mythical figure that the Great Satan can't touch then claim bin Laden is winning. Is it any wonder why so many question which side they are on?
Understanding the motivation of an enemy who has declared that anyone who does not convert to their belief system will die doesn't help us defeat them. It is not our foreign policy that is driving the hatred. It is our belief system being at odds with theirs. Changing our policies now will only convince them that we are weak and can be conquered.
What “policy” has failed?
their poliocy to create jobs, employment, technology, quality of life social goods and a future for themselves
thus they blame their failure on the US and G8.
its the same old blame the zionistas and the Americans
